Answer:
54 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar figures have corresponding lengths as equal ratios.
Smaller trapezoid's base is given 12 and larger trapezoids base is given 18, so the scale factor is 
<em>this means the lengths of larger is 1.5 times lengths of smaller.</em>
<em />
In terms of area, the scale factor is squared. Hence the scale factor for area is 
<em>this means the area of larger is 2.25 times the area of smaller.</em>
<em />
Now, Let area of smaller trapezoid be x so we can say: 
<em>to nearest square meter, </em><em>x = 54 meters squared</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number by x
Sum of x and 8: x +8
(x + 8)³
That graph would be non-linear
They gave you a set of numbers that you replace the variable x in the equation to see if it gives a correct answer so just do exactly that.
6 + 2x = 24
6 + 2(6) = 24
6 + 12 = 24
18 = 24 so incorrect. both sides are not equal to each other.
6 + 2x = 24
6 + 2(9) = 24
6 + 18 = 24
24 = 24 so correct. both sides are equal to each other.
6 + 2x = 24
6 + 2(15) = 24
6 + 30 = 24
36 = 24 so incorrect. both sides are not equal to each other.
6 + 2x = 24
6 + 2(16) = 24
6 + 32 = 24
38 = 24 so incorrect. both sides are not equal to each other.
so your answer is b) 9
hope this helps, God bless!
